(the “Schedule 13D”), which relates to a group now
consisting of Edward J. Shoen, Mark V. Shoen, Foster Road LLC,
Willow Grove Holdings LP, Blackwater Investments, Inc. and
Clarendon Strategies, LLC, each individually and/or on behalf of
the various entities as applicable (the “Reporting Persons”)
with respect to the voting common stock, $0.25 par value per share
(the “Common Stock”), of AMERCO (the “Company”).
Item 3. Source and Amount
of Funds or Other Consideration
As described in more detail below in Item 5(c), Clarendon purchased
an aggregate of 248,300 shares of Common Stock in open market
purchases for an aggregate purchase price of $16,132,237.70. The
source of funds used in connection with the purchase of these
shares of Common Stock was the working capital of Clarendon
and its affiliates.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a)-(b) As set forth below, each of the Reporting Persons
beneficially owns the number and percentage of shares of Common
Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock of the Company individually and
as a group and each of the Reporting Persons maintains such sole or
shared voting power as applicable. Each of the Reporting Persons
continues to maintain sole dispositive power in respect of the
shares beneficially owned individually by such Reporting Person. As
of November 4, 2022, there were 19,607,788 shares of Common
Stock outstanding, and as of November 10, 2022, there were
176,470,092 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding, each of
which is used as the basis for calculating percentages.
Willow Grove is the record holder of 7,562,884 shares of Common
Stock and 68,065,956 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock. Foster
Road, which is owned and controlled by various trusts associated
with Mark V. Shoen and Edward J. Shoen, owns a 0.1% general partner
interest in Willow Grove. The managers of Foster Road are Stuart
Shoen and Mark V. Shoen. The trustees of the trusts and managers of
Foster Road may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the
securities held of record by Willow Grove. Each of them disclaims
beneficial ownership of any such securities except to the extent of
such persons pecuniary interest therein, and the filing of this
Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any such
person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of
Section 13(d) or Section 13(g) of the Act or

record holder of 880,127 shares of Common Stock and 7,921,143

Holdings LP and Foster Road LLC are deemed to be indirect owners of
shares of Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock held by
Clarendon and Blackwater. Accordingly, Willow Grove Holdings LP and
Foster Road LLC directly and indirectly own 9,767,011 shares of
Common Stock, approximately 49.81% of the Common Stock outstanding
and 75,987,099 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, approximately

Common Stock and Non-Voting Common Stock outstanding.
Each of the Reporting Persons, as a member of a “group” with the
other Reporting Persons for purposes of
Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act, may be deemed to
beneficially own the shares owned by the other Reporting Persons.
The filing of this Schedule 13D/A shall not be deemed an admission
